Gideon Yeakley has been on quite a journey since he first appeared on "My 600-lb Life" in 2016. Due to his desire to lose weight, the Oklahoma native and his family moved so that he could start Dr. Now's program. Despite some roadblocks, Gideon lost weight, and his family eventually moved back to Oklahoma. In September 2017, Gideon and his wife Kayleigh welcomed a baby girl named Frankie. Later, in 2019, Gideon had a health scare and was admitted to the hospital after he unexpectedly collapsed, according to InTouch Weekly.

"Gideon is at the hospital. He called me at work to come home early because he felt so bad," Kayleigh wrote on Facebook (via InTouch Weekly). Fortunately for Gideon, he soon bounced back and continued to focus on healthy living. Still, that isn't all that's going on in Gideon's life.

Gideon and his wife, Kayleigh, are no longer together. The announcement came via a Facebook post made by Kayleigh in May 2022. Gideon's ex shared an image of the beach that declared, "The honeymoon's over. Also, so is the marriage." Along with the photo, Kayleigh wrote, "After 14 years together, Gideon and I have decided to end our marriage." She further explained that the pair would remain focused on caring for their children.
